Action + Video | Captain on the bridge. Sort of...

Who: Steve and you!
Broadcast: Video, yes: Fleetwide
Action: SS Bishop
When: Yesterday, after arrival



ACTION:
Steve has just about managed to acquaint himself with the strange, new idea that he is now in space when the next curve is thrown his way. One second he's standing in a hallway, just about to walk up and ask someone if they have any idea what he's doing here. The next, he's...on a bridge. With confetti? And are those pudding cups? What the Hell is going on? He blinks around, his first instinct to always look and see if there is some sort of fight about to happen. Hands are in fists and he really wishes his shield was somewhere around here. But he dropped that in the dirt a few months ago, so fat chance.

Steve will stand down slowly, once no one attacks him right off the bat. Sadly, he's been in this position before; in a strange place and time, not knowing why or how. His thoughts are back on Earth and with the friends he's broken out of their floating prison and now, seemingly, abandoned. Maybe there is a way out of here. Or, maybe, he's needed here more? Hopefully someone is going to be able to talk him through it all.


VIDEO:

Many hours later, Steve sends out a broadcast, finally understanding how and wanting to reach out to anyone else that might be here. Anyone else he might know.

"Uh. Hey. My name is Steve Rogers. Hopefully I'm doing this right and you can all see and hear me. I just arrived about..." He looks down at something and then scrubs a hand over his face as though in disbelief. "Two days ago. A lot got packed into those days, it seems. But I'm sure you all know how that feels."

Steve pauses, shifting a bit before getting closer to the camera, face serious. "I've met some people here so I know that what happened to me has happened to a lot of other good people. I have questions and a lot of things I want to look into. But first, I want to know who else is out there. Who else might have the same questions I do and who wants to start getting some answers."

He moves back and tries to smile. "Or who maybe just wants to talk? Anything. So, yeah. Thanks. How do I....um. Is it this butt-"

Video cuts off abruptly.

Hey, Steve. Well, there's a lot out there, honestly. I've been here a long time, and we've never gone to the same place twice.

The pilots don't really have much control over the ships, anyway. There's only so far they can go away from the Marsiva before they drift back.

Nobody really knows where we're going until we get there. A lot of the planets we go to seem to have trouble, and we help them out. Or try to, anyway.. I've been to so many different places, it's hard to remember them all. One of my favorite places had this glowing forest with trees that sang. Another one was a planet that had a ring-shaped planet around it that you could go on. That one was really nice.

It's a mixed bag, honestly.. There was a planet some of the ships got stuck on that was full of cannibals. They tried to board the ships in orbit and failed.

..Yeah, people have died before. It doesn't stick, and they all come back.

[ It was certainly A Time. ]

They're the same, but it takes a while. About two weeks. They wake up on the Marsiva- the same area you first woke up in.

Sure. If you need anything else, my name is Carl. I'm on the Red Fish.
